This is a huge harvest!! Sharing how we grow onions, tomatoes, and a fave recipe!

[@tubegoob1]

Totally agree -- there's nothing like fresh tomatoes and cucumbers from the garden! Now I'm hungry! 🍅🥒🧅😋

[@Blossomandbranch]

We're only two days after our first killing frost and I'm already missing my tomatoes! It's going to be a long winter!

[@AlexandraSchwartz740]

A trick a friend taught me a while ago, that helps me to dice onions, is to only cut the top off, when peeling them. Then all layers stay connected at the bottom end and are easier to control, when I cut them into smaller pieces.

[@kathrynmettelka7216]

The taste of fresh vegetables cannot be matched by grocery store produce. My garlic, potatoes, and cherry tomatoes thrilled me this summer.

[@takanyamelody]

It's lovely to see your videos, you are so down to earth and your farm is beautiful. I really liked seeing the cooking part!

[@lindasowash7054]

If Midnight needs a little vacation he can certainly come to my house and enjoy a feast of brine weed.

Always love cooking videos - new ideas are wonderful🤗

[@Blossomandbranch]

Thank you so much 😊

My mom made this every summer it the best. She used Italian dressing or zesty Italian dressing. So good

[@jaynelloyd007]

I adore your videos ❤ I have learned so much from you . Its my first year on my allotment, and it has been a life saver . Can I just say anyone dealing with any mental health issues? Try gardening . Thanks for all the great tips.

[@GardenMoxie]

I enjoyed the video. Great job. The new house renovations look incredible. Such a great job!

[@lehhan5056]

Yes… some cooking videos will be GREAT 😊

[@evafredriksson-lidsle4909]

Love the flowers, but it's also nice to see what you grow foodwise 🙂!

[@mamaearth35]

Loved the video, recipe & sneak peek of your gorgeous home remodel! Since you don't do "typical garden tours" ... if you ever think of it while out in your garden beds, mentioning the gorgeous plants nearby would be lovely! I noticed your gorgeous Northern Sea Oats and something else with purple flowers? Anyways, I imagine it must be a lot to turn on the camera and show us around, and I always appreciate your authenticity. Thank you for your videos! 💛

[@valeriegordon7477]

Yes to more cooking videos as well. I love super simple ones like your cuke and tomato salad.

[@daduska2002]

Basil is ideal to grow near your tomato plants as a companion plant since it repels hornworms

[@threetreesfarm]

Yes please ma'am! All the kitchen videos!!

[@LisadeKramer]

Your house looks amazing. I cannot wait for a tour. Next year I will try new varieties of tomatoes. 4 of July works well for me but they are small. Great information as usual. Thank you.

[@bobbinsandkalechips]

Oh my, yes. I have been unsuccessful with onions, too. Thanks for the tips. For the past four years I tried onion sets from Walmart. Next season, I’m going to try seeds and soil blocking. Happy harvest time from a fellow Coloradan! Would love to see more cooking videos. ❤

[@Blossomandbranch]

You are so welcome! Will be sure to post more cooking vids!

[@melissaschloneger9902]

This is the first year I grew normal sized onions from seed (after trying for about 5 years). The key for me was good soil, lots of mulch to not let the soil dry out, and to water often. I live in Ohio and get the seeds started in January inside and then plant them out in March.

[@takingtally]

Great idea to do cooking videos. I’d love a tour on your home expansion too 🤗 thanks for the pineapple tomato tip. I’ll add it to my list next year! ~Janelle in Ohio

[@janellsalter4025]

Yum. Always love more recipes!

Love love loved this video.😊

[@Blossomandbranch]

Thank you!! So glad you enjoyed it ;)

[@hannahhalleck9558]

This is my favorite summer salad too! And ...you might be as excited as i was when i found a recipe to can it! I layer cucumber, tomato and onion in a jar, add a light vinegar brine, and process like a pickle! Its not exactly the same, you loose some of the freshness BUT hands down better than buying tomatoes in the winter from the grocery!👏🏻

[@hannahhalleck9558]

I wish I could add a picture because it's beautiful in a jar! I have it front and center in my pantry!

[@Blossomandbranch]

Oh what a great tip, thank you!!

[@SiriusScientist]

Yes to cooking videos!

[@lsherylc2524]

Loved this video! If I leave my onions and even a little tiny bit, they both here in 9b. but yeah, we plant in the fall actually .this weekend actually. Thanks Brie!

[@farwest6275]

Enjoy the variety of your videos so yes, cooking videos would be wonderful. My hubby loves the Sun Gold tomatoes also. I grew Celebrity for slicers and San Marzano for paste. We've grown many varieties in the past so will try your pineapple pole next year. Tomatoes in Washington Puget Sound area are tricky with sometimes very cool, wet weather through June.

[@mistygeller3193]

How delicious!! Thank you for sharing! Absolutely share more if you’re up to it! I love how you garden, cover cropping, and letting nature do what it’s going to do. I always learn something or you will mention a topic or plant, that then sends me on a mission to get more information 😊

[@michelleyanche1706]

Loved this video. Yes more recipes!

[@LobnaAllaham]

Yes please l like to see cooking videos

[@rootedvine9870]

Really like your videos. In the off-season would love to see the remodel of your home. I am in Phoenix and the last couple of years my produce in the raised beds have really been eaten by ground squirrels. They got all my tomatoes, managed to get a few cucumbers and melons. And Rabbits are getting my ground level beds. How do you combat some of these type of pest? Getting very discouraged. Also, my son just moved to Colorado Springs so your videos are even more interesting to learn about this new climate. Hope to actually visit your place sometime next year when I go out to visit him and you have an open farm day. And would love to see your recipes.

[@AnnaKincaid]

yum! I love this whole video. I WISH I liked tomatoes raw but nope. Although I want to give them a chance and make them into sauce or salsa.

[@betucibetuci5168]

Zdravím z Česka, u nás děláme obdobný salát z rajčat, okurky , cibule a pár paprik. Nálev děláme sladkokyselý. Pěstujeme si také svoji zeleninu, chutí a kvalitou se nedá srovnat s kupovanou. Děkuji za vaše videa, hodně jsem se od vás naučila.

[@Blossomandbranch]

Thank you so much for sharing, sounds delicious!!

[@Rox_and_Fields]

Would love to see some cooking videos!

[@nommindymple6241]

It always surprises me when I see you having your sheep just wander about (especially after they ate all your harvested dahlias (I think) a bit ago). How do you keep them from eating what they shouldn't be eating?

[@Blossomandbranch]

We let them wander more freely in late summer than in spring when things are tall and they can’t reach them, or are nearly done blooming. Spring we have to keep them a bit more contained with the portable fencing :)

[@donig7337]

Hello I would love to learn more about your indoor composting. Does it bring bugs? My research has been mixed. I live in NY and don't have a area in my yard where I can start a pile of compost but would love to have my own soil instead of buying from the stores to fill my outdoor pots. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

[@livspysselhemregard4573]

I whant to see how you plant out the garlic.

[@livspysselhemregard4573]

I mean onions 😅

[@laurienafe5390]

What was fermenting on your counter in the background?

[@Blossomandbranch]

Apple cider vinegar!

[@WhiteOakHollow]

We are building our dream kitchen right now. I noticed your sink is your counter top material. Can I ask what it is? I was told not to do that bc how much canning I do and boiling water would shock it. Is that true??

[@Blossomandbranch]

This is a soapstone sink, and no we were told it is fine to use high heat on it! ;)

[@WhiteOakHollow]

THANK YOU! I’m gonna run to my designer with that info. 😁😁

[@WhiteOakHollow]

@@Blossomandbranch BTW, love the sneak peak of the remodel!! I just love everything about your farm! I’ve learned SO much! Thank you!
